Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom LLP

Drawing upon lawyers in Hong Kong and the Mainland with local law as well as US and English law capability, Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom LLP remains well-positioned to advise a Chinese issuer-focused client base seeking to list on the HKSE as well as abroad. The team is at the forefront of evolving market trends, and as well as continuing to handle some homecoming listings, it also remains active for Chinese corporates seeking to list on the NASDAQ as well as through alternative means – including by dint of a de-SPAC or a reverse takeover. The ‘practical and solutions-oriented’ Paloma Wang is key to much of this work, including on behalf of a considerable number of large TMT companies seeking to access capital in Hong Kong and in the US. New York and Hong Kong-qualified partner Shu Du works ’effectively and efficiently’ with counterparties and fellow team mates on a varied mix of ECM matters, running the gamut from domestic IPOs, through to homecoming listings and Hong Kong/US de-SPAC transactions. Splitting her time between Hong Kong and Shanghai, Haiping Li  co-heads the China corporate practice alongside Wang, and is particularly noted for her work for new economy Chinese companies on US and Hong Kong IPOs.
